Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

It does what the name implies; it warms your towels. It also does so in a safe fashion, so that if you accidentally touch it, it won't burn you. Lots of folks are leaving reviews that it doesn't work; this is not the case, but it takes about 20 minutes to warm your towel, otherwise only the edges of the towel will be warmed because a towel is a great insulator and it has to obey the laws of physics. It also doesn't seal at the top, because otherwise it would become a pressure cooker because, again, it obeys the laws of physics. Yes, some heat escapes through the top, but all that heat has to move through your towel first, which will make it nice and warm. Put your towel in for 5 minutes and you won't notice a difference. 10 minutes and the edges will be warm. 15 minutes and your towel will be a bit above room temperature. 20 minutes and you'll have a nice warm towel. 30 minutes and up, you'll have a nice HOT towel. No safe towel warmer will warm your towel faster. If you want, you can put your towel in an oven and set it to 300 degrees, but barring that, this towel warmer is awesome!
